E30 headlight

Post by milli320i »

I want to replace the low beam headlights in my e21, I want to install the lights with the model E30 lens, and install a xenon kit ... Technically I can make this change?

best advice is to get all four e30 lights on there mounting bracket and try to attach this to the front panel.
ive fitted the e30 projector non smiley lights to mine.

but ive bodged the e30 lamp into the e21 light bracket using a drill, cable ties and some little springs......... not the best way of doing it!
